Covid-19 infections have risen by 10% in a week in Europe after two months in decline and the risk of a new wave of cases is growing, says the World Health Organization.

There was also a danger that Euro 2020 could act as a "super-spreader".
Hundreds of fans returning from London and St Petersburg have tested positive.
